RoleDescription
TechPods is a UK-based technology co-sourcing company with offices in Bulgaria. Unlike traditional IT outsourcing companies, TechPods' fully transparent model enables companies to scale quickly, while mitigating risk and reducing costs. We strongly believe that traditional outsourcing is dead, and the key to long-term success lies in partnering, as opposed to a vendoring.
We're currently looking for a Senior Data Engineer who will work collaboratively within a fast-driven software development team and act as a key member of the Data and Analytics Team. The position is available within one of our well-established UK-based partners, which has been on the market for over 30 years, specialising in road safety and training solutions. As the company continues to grow through strategic acquisitions, it is pivoting into AI-driven technologies to enhance its offerings. The team develops core SaaS products, shapes the technological direction, and builds scalable solutions that make a difference. The role holder will be responsible for developing the data platform, testing, improving and maintaining new and existing data technologies and data feeds.
